After downloading many pictures of different wheel combinations, I've decided I like the stock covers on my 2004 SC430. Am I a party of one?

Uhg - it's like having trash can lids

May I see what wheels you were looking at to come to the conclusion that you liked the pies?

If you decide to keep the stock wheels, at least replace the pie plates with the star centers.

To each their own.

I have 4 spare pizza pie covers if you want them cheap............they will not be on my SC 430 ever again...........

At this point, I'm thinking I'll have the most unique SC430 in town!!

I will agree

I replaced mine as soon as the "star caps" became available, and I have my original pie pans in a box in the garage. All offers seriously considered.

And yes, I think you are a party of one on this issue.

And "each" is singular, so I think he means "To each his own."

And "unique" means one of a kind, so it is one of the few unmodifiable adjectives in the language, although "most unique" and "very unique" are very common mistakes.

Another common mistake is not replacing the pie pans, although the more pie pans that stay on the road, the more unusual and distinctive are the cars of those who modified.

With me, I hated the pie when it first came out, I hated it for a few years.

Now that I am really shopping for a SC430, the more I look at the pie, the more I start to like it

It is funny how the mind works

You are not alone froggyluvr

Yes

to me, the pie plates look like something you'd see in a 70's sci-fi movie. in the future, this is what wheels will look like. i only wish they'd been wrong.

Well, perfesser, judging by the poll results thus far, I hope you're not including your vehicle in the "unusual and distinctive" category.

Forgive me if this is covered elsewhere,but I have a 2003 with the dreaded PIE PLATES (which I prefer to call manhole covers). I have always hated them but hadn't replaced the wheels due to pricing etc. Regarding the star covers, do these attach to the existing wheels? Where can one purchase those. And finally, are there any pics around showing them on the SC430? Thanks!

Go to ebay and search on Lexus SC430. On any given day, you'll find lots of good pics of cars with different wheels including the star caps.

Here's a good example of an ebay post that has good pics of the stars on an SC430.

I have not found a good source for the star centers, other than the dealer.
